Colin Hay at the House of Blues

His glory days as frontman of Australian eighties iconic group Men At Work might be behind him, but singer/songwriter Colin Hay is still a spectacular guitarist and storyteller whose solo show is mesmerizing as much for his spoken reminiscences about growing up in Australia and life on the road as it is for the beautifully crafted songs he wrings from his acoustic guitar. 7 pm on January 26 (which is Australia Day, by the way). $25. houseofblues.com/neworleans.
